The Island Light Sector Rotation portfolio was updated for the month of June as part of our regular rebalancing. The strategy, which employs an advanced algorithm for capturing market momentum in an optimized portfolio of US sectors, is the latest in a series of innovative dynamic portfolio models offered by Island Light.
